CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 7.0% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. 4.1% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. Filing activity peaked in 2004 at 385.7% of renter households.
The most recent observed rate, 38.7% in 2005, is well off that peak. That places it #3 of 16 neighborhoods in Gilbert.
Only 23% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
